A win in our grasp

Worked with Lady tonight on poles - what else?! She is coming along and man she is fast. I have a glimmer of hope that she will be able to do four poles at the end of her session. This means being bumped up to level two. I don't know why this is important, but it is. Lady is very competitive and I found a way to make her work: bring Maggie out with us. She ups her game if she is being competitive. Ahhhhh, I found the light. Now if I can get her to do the poles I will be one happy little camper.

I would love to start training her on the jumps, she absolutely loves the jumps and she is very fast. The only thing that would be holding her back in competition would be me. I guess I need to work on my agility too.

I am doing more research on McNabs and it is so exciting having a dog that is somewhat rare. Lady is such a good dog, I might even break my cardinal rule and buy another McNab. Yes that means a puppy - Ugh! Well maybe I'll just adopt another Border Collie from AZ Border Collie Rescue, they haven't "steered" me wrong yet.
